Stay tuned.

Can you explain what that means?
I get pricey. I bought 4 and no one can press them straight into my oe toe arms

In terms of "hard" , we measured that they would contribute an equivalent of 56 lb/in in equivalent spring rate, versus around 15 for the oe bushings. So around 4 times stiffer. That is also the reason they are very hard to press in. We also had trouble until we figured out the trick. The pic I posted has two Group N pressed in. That was the first one we did so there's a couple of scuffs but now we're good...

Stay tuned.

To be clear, that's 56 lb/in per bushing, so 112 for the whole arm with 2 bushings in it (vs 30 for oe).

Stay tuned!

Stay tuned!

And that increases your rear spring rate?

[Angel67]

Yup.

Stay tuned!

Does anyone know the part numbers for the bolts and nuts when installing these? Just purchased new megan arms and would like to install new hardware along with it. Thanks in Advance
